I’m curious: what is your motivation to eat? Is it for health reasons? Or perhaps to satisfy hunger, or for pleasure and taste. There are so many reasons people eat. Sometimes it’s because of boredom, stress, or simply not wanting to waste food.

I recommend you keep a food log. Each day, write down everything you eat, then next to each food item, write down your motivation for eating it. This will increase your awareness of why you’re eating. So many people eat reactively and unconsciously, then they wonder why they’ve gained weight. It’s all that added sugar, and the high insulin that results. Plus, the combination of carbs and protein, and sugar and fat, send your insulin high.

My goal for you is to get you to eat for the right reason. If you look at the definition of food in the dictionary, it’s derived from the word for nutrients. If you’re eating to get the nutrients you need, that’s good! And of course, you want to satisfy your hunger, as well as get the right fuel for your body. This is why I recommend keto and intermittent fasting.

If you stick to eating for health, you’ll stay out of trouble. If you’re having trouble with your weight or health, here are 5 tips I recommend:

1. Raise your awareness of what and why you eat, by keeping a food log. Then upload it at the link below this video.

2. Change your motivation. You can get a lot of pleasure from eating healthy foods!

3. Make healthy eating easy. Eat-in an environment that supports healthy eating. In other words, don’t hang out in a bakery or a bar, surf the web on food channels, or go to certain restaurants that serve food you shouldn’t be eating. Buffets are the worst! Avoid fast-food restaurants, and don’t go grocery shopping when you’re hungry. If you get low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), that can trigger unhealthy eating. If you follow keto and intermittent fasting, this won’t be an issue.

4. Stay in the present. Keeping a food log will help you with this. You’ll be less likely to eat reactively or mindlessly. If you’re challenged with this, keep on logging your food until you truly feel present and aware.

5. Fasting is crucial. The whole goal of fasting is not to eat, so it’s impossible to eat mindlessly when you’re not eating.
